Summary: | We reviewed the confidentiality and
authentication for multi-party applications. A conceptual
model of a secure multicast network has been presented
by adding a quantum key distribution (QKD) network to
its architecture. The model is divided into three phases,
the first phase, QKD network generate secure keys to
encrypt not only data but also authentication process. The
second phase, authentication making sure that no one
except the legitimate user receive the message and making
sure that nobody except the legitimate sender writes or
modifies it. In the last phase, Multicast network encrypt
the data by secure key and send it to receivers. The
proposed scheme amid to provide a secure end to end
communication for multicast network |
